Invite
me i
write think
fast rite fast
writing faster
not righting
desperate hunger
for words
to make you see
i don't know how to make
you want me
i'm asking
my rite
write back
I wasn't expecting to be asked to submit a poem when I joined so this is what I found in my head with the word invite as the starting point. I'm not sure about the lack of punctuation. I liked it originally because it allows the reader to position their own emphasis within the lines. The same goes for the line separations, however I'm now not as convinced as I have my own emphasis imaginedย ย expressing exactly what I wanted to say. I may be over thinking what was also intended to convey the rush to produce something meaningful as a rite of passage.
